HALF_LIFE_3_TRAILER

The long wait for the Half Life 3 trailer is finally over! Well, sort of. A trailer has indeed been released very recently, but it’s not exactly official. It is very funny though. So, what am I even talking about? Given that Valve is so very secretive when it comes to Half Life 3 (or most of their other games for that matter), the folks over at Smosh Games have decided to take matters into their own hands and have created an awesome trailer for us to enjoy. If you’ve been on Youtube for pretty much any length of time you already know who these guys are and what they do, but if you haven’t for some odd reason you can view a sample of their work below.

The video in question is the latest in a long series of Honest Game Trailers and it showcases one of the most highly anticipated and talked about games at the moment – Half Life 3. Now, given that today is April Fools and all, the trailer is meant to be a joke as you’ve probably figured out by now. Regardless, it’s very funny and you should definitely watch it if you haven’t already. The trailer has a few NSFW parts (although nothing big) so consider yourself warned. An actual trailer for Half Life 3 is unlikely to be released any time soon, which means that this is the next best thing we have right now. I realize that’s actually pretty sad in a way, but there’s not much we can do about it I’m afraid.

As for the game itself, there’s no actual news to go on at this time. Actually, there’s very little evidence to suggest that Half Life 3 is even in development, although there are definitely plenty of rumors floating around these days. A good indication that Valve might be working on it is the company’s GDC 2015 announcement regarding the Source 2 engine. It is assumed that Valve is developing a major title to showcase the full capabilities of their new engine and Half Life 3 would certainly fit the profile. But again, there’s no confirmation, so don’t get your hopes up just yet.

While Sony may not classify Gran Turismo 7 as a live-service game, the team at Polyphony Digital certainly approaches it with a similar mindset. The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.

The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.

If you’re not already acquainted with Highspeed Étoile, you can watch a trailer right here. “Sony has announced that a collection of 26 stickers, consisting of 8 title logos and 18 main character stickers, will be made available for a limited time,” stated Sony on the PS Blog. In addition, Fukushima will be included as a backdrop in the title’s beloved photography mode.

This author has consistently praised the realistic portrayal of tennis in TopSpin 4. After more than a decade, we are thrilled to witness the release of TopSpin 2K25, which expands upon the success of its renowned predecessor. This gameplay video provides a comprehensive overview of the features discussed in our recent preview while also incorporating relevant footage to enhance understanding.

The series’ swing system sets it apart from arcade-style games like Virtua Tennis, as it requires players to charge up their shots in a different way. In order to succeed, timing is crucial, and fortunately, a new meter above your player will assist you in achieving that. Surfaces have their own distinct characteristics, such as clay, where you’ll experience a noticeable amount of sliding.

The game ensures that every player has a distinct set of animations, adding a touch of individuality to each competitor. The courts, found in all Grand Slams, possess a remarkable amount of individuality and charm. It is mentioned in the video that with each in-game season, players can expect a plethora of additional content, such as animation packs. This indicates that there will be plenty to anticipate even after the game’s initial release.
